Fade of the Day – Unbranded UB265 (6 Months, 2 Washes)

If there’s ever a part of a pair of jeans’ journey into fading that looks the coolest, it’s most lost likely when they start fading and are showing electric blue all over. That’s true of today’s Fade of the Day, a pair of Unbranded UB265.

These jeans come to us from Elliot Hauser of Austin, Texas, who says he wore them last summer while working as a line cook next to Big Green Egg charcoal grills that would heat up to 800 degrees Fahrenheit. Perhaps all that cooking resulted in the dirt on the jeans?

Grime aside, these look great with their bright blue fades and the crosshatched nature of the denim coming through. The honeycombs are tight, large stacks have formed, and those honeycombs are getting shredded!
